Description
Clematis Pernille stands out as a true gem when it comes to adding a splash of elegance and vibrant color to your garden. This remarkable variety captivates with its striking bi-colored flowers—pristine white blossoms adorned with purple edges that create a visual spectacle unlike any other. Clematis Pernille is free-flowering, flowers all through summer into autumn and boasts its beautiful flowers upright-facing, which is somewhat unusual for clematis varieties that typically have nodding heads or sideways-facing blooms. This feature ensures that the gorgeous bi-colored petals are in full view, making them even more of an eye-catcher in any garden setting.
This gold-medal-winning Clematis keeps its bright colors very well, with very little to no fading: the stunning contrast between the white and purple edges remains vivid throughout the blooming period. But Pernille isn’t just about looks; it's also incredibly hardy, capable of thriving in at least zone 5 conditions, and very easy to grow, propagate, and prune.
